    Default 2005 Turkey

    Wow, this season was hard to hunt. The turkeys were not coming to the calls or decoys. It was a fluke that I got mine. I was about to give up for the day (2:00) due to frustration, heat, and ticks. I went back to the cabin to take a shower and relax then would hit it hard again the next day. I went to sit on the back porch and there was a turkey down where I just was. It flew over from across the creek. It started heading up the dug road by the cabin. I quick put my camo pants and boots back on, grabbed my gun and vest and headed out to the blind up top. It seemed like it was taking forever for him to get there, so I started using my power crystal slate. My Mother in law said he started to boogy up there once I started calling. Finally he made it to the top of the dug road. I let him get about 15 feet off the dug road and made a 35 yard shot with my 20 gauge. I have sent my pictures to Borch to put on the contest site. My turkey weighed 21 lbs, beard was 11 3/4", and the spurs were 1 3/16" and 1 1/8". You will then see that I did not get a chance to change my shirt but the blue "Realtree Roadtrips" shirt did the trick. Good luck??? Maybe
